Nop!

Here is another option...

https://www.vehiclehistory.com

But I am not sure if it lists all accidents...but does report "Accident/Salvage etc"

It does show accident history, but you cant count on it to be 100% accurate.

Accidents, air bag deployment, etc are interspersed with other data like service, title history etc.

Also at the top of the report how many owners, odometer discrepancy, lease fleet use, accidents all together.

Ok, I don't show the accident in the free car fax or vehiclehistory.com. So maybe it wasn't reported?

If you can't find a free one, you can get one here for $10. Carfax isn't always that good at picking up accidents, you should also run an autocheck.
